Crown Inn Normanton on Trent in Bassetlaw

Well you don't know until you've given a place a try ! Rang in advance to see if we needed to book a table, and to ask about the menu as we couldn't find any derails on the Internet. Told that they intend to update their site, for now they are happy to tell you over the phone. The pub was very noisy, with a large TV screen taking over the bar area. The noise generated to the seating area where we struggled to hear ourselves initially whilst waiting for our meal. It did subside as time went on. More a cafe style seating area than a restaurant. The tables are small, so the four of us were definitely squashed. The meals were poor. A lamb pasty with very little lamb in, no gravy accompanied any of our meals. Nutroast just about adequate, but very small potion. Overcooked chips, and a fish portin (clearly from a pack of ...). All the mains were shop bought and not terribly well cooked. Prices reflected a much better meal than any of us were served. Absolutely no atmosphere in the dining area. We had heard that the Sunday roasts were good, but sadly I couldn't recommend any of our meals, most disappointing.

Had a Christmas dinner, good food and you certainly get a good choice including Christmas pudding. Good service all staff helpful and polite highly recommended pub👍

Nice atmosphere and excellent hosts!

A down to earth pub. Lovely landlady and landlord that was super friendly and caring. Very welcoming Home cooked food A play area for kids

Called in here off the A1 rather than eating in some rubbish Service Station. Good food, drinks, great value for money, off road parking and small child’s outdoor play area. The owners were friendly and helpful too. Glad we made the effort rather than opting for the services. Amusing urinal too 😂

Just been took over by a couple and their two children in March 2023. So a business in progress. Needs decorating and tables in and outdoors need cleaning better in my opinion. But time will help.

A warm welcome and excellent food. Best wishes for your new venture

Fantastic service , after being let down by the other pub in the village the landlady rustled me up a very tasty pie and mash . Highly recommended for going the extra mile .

Love this place the new owners are lovely made us and the kids feel more than welcome, definitely our go to from now on.
